does this unit remove smoke odor

Yes it dies I had that unit and lived in an apartment that had been smoked in

We do not smoke but we have had dogs and it removes the dog smell. Plus we live in a rural area and there is a lot of skunks that get hit on the road near us. and this removes that odor as well. So i would imagine that it would remove smoke odor. Hope that helps.

Yes. Ozone is very effective against smoke odor. It can be used for cigarette/cigar smoke, and is very effective after a house fire.

Yes! This unit is worth every penny you pay. Does a great job. You can run it for up to an hour on the timer or run it continuously.

Yes if it is really bad you may have to do the treatment more than once. If it is in a car you might also want to change the cabin filter

i'm not sure. we use this in the shoe closet to neutralize and as well as near pet areas. smoke smell is often absorbed into fabrics of clothes or furniture, i do not believe it could help with that. perhaps an air cleaner that filters the air and circulates cleaner air in the room? we have one and it works well, especially when cooking.

No it is not. I bought after reading some reviews saying it works good for smoking.It does filter some of the smoke if you blow the smoke right into the unit. HOWEVER the room and house will still smell like smoke. Not a smoke eater. I wasted the money on this

It will absolutely eliminate the smoke smell. You should run it at full power over night when no one is there and turn it to low when you have guests. I would ask the company also. There is nothing else that eliminates odors like ozone. I think you could put it on a timer so that your employees don't spend long periods of time with high levels of ozone. My personal use for this machine is because of a smoker so I know it eliminates the odors. In the days when smoking was allowed everywhere ozone air filters were in every bar!

I returned my unit to the manufacturer. I found it ineffective for my needs and very noisy. Whether this would neutralize cigarette odors coming from another source other then the confines of your condo would be marginal at best.

unfortunately, no. this isn't an air freshner but a personal purifier. I'll tell you what it does help with. My co-worker is a HEAVY smoker and when she comes back from her smoke break, this purifier helps me to not smell the tobacco that lingers on her. It helps when someone wears too much perfume too.

This comes with charcoal inserts that help eliminate pet odors. You have to replace the charcoal filters every so often so keep that in mind for operating costs. It handles a normal bedroom sized room.

yes for the most part, it reduces the immediate smell and gets the smell out of the air faster if its in the area of the smoke

Probably. I've never used it on smoke but I did talk to a contractor who uses an ozone generator in buildings to clean up odors. Just make sure you don't directly breath the fumes. The ozone initially has a strong rain like smell but after the smell dissipates, everything smells fresh.

I would try it on a spot no one can see...just in case it removes any tint. In my short experience with this product, I'd say it would remove smoke odors. FYI it seems to be the best window cleaner I've used, even though it doesn't say to use it for windows!

No, in order for any air purifier to reduce odors it has to have a charcoal filter which this one does not have. You can buy an inexpensive charcoal filter at Home Depot or Lowes and cut it down to size. This air purifier has been a life saver, trust me I've tried them all

It does generate a fair amount of smoke. My wife made me use it outside to keep the smell at bay. The one time we used it inside it did not set our detector off.

This unit can help to remove cigarette smoke when paired with its HEPA-Odorcell filter. We would recommend to purchase these together so you will have the best option to help remove the lingering odor. Keep in mind, these units will only work in the space that they are in. We recommend that when you receive your unit, take out the basic filter that comes with the unit and put in the HEPA-Odorcell and turn the unit on high for a couple of hours to allow max air flow. If you have any further questions, please let us know. Thank you for choosing Alen as your clean air provider and have a great day.

It really depends on the layout (open vs lots of walls) and the amount of "dirtyness". If it's open and you're not a heavy smoker, then most likely yes. I have an open layout 1200 sq ft home. The unit does a good job on all rooms except the far bedroom, because it is kept closed. I have occasional smokers in my home, 4 cats (2 automatic catboxes help with that!), and 2 big dogs. No one ever complains about the critter smell, most don't know I have animals until they see them.

Yes... I had the same problem... Changed to this filter, got better results. Was worried that is was for pet odors. I do not use it for smoke odors. It is used for office bathrooms...Better product...John

It should get rid of most odor. For heavy cigarette smoke and tar odors, you may want to do more than one coat.

No, I found that the smoke is minimal and really caused no problem. I enjoy using mine.
